Critic Scores, Reviews & Descriptions

94 DE / 93-94 JS / 92-94 JD / 90-92+ WI / 90-92 WA.

Juicy and clean, a lovely purity of fruit - blackcurrant, black cherry and creamy blueberries. Straight frame and sleek texture, tannins are slightly textured giving a soft, chalky grip to the palate, mouth coating tannins but gives a nice weight to the overall expression. Mouthwatering acidity keeps the freshness, overall this is quite a delicate, light style. Very easy drinking with some appealing herbal bramble fruit, salinity and soft dark chocolate touches. Really fresh, and grippy with a powdery dry touch to the finish. A yield of 47hl/ha. Tasted twice. - Georgina Hindle, Decanter

Very tight center palate here with currant, chocolate and hazelnut aromas and flavors. Medium body. Focused and bright. - James Suckling

Another impressive Graves is the 2022 Château La Louvière, which comes from vines near Léognan. This deep plum/purple-hued effort offers lots of cassis, plum, and chocolate nuances on the nose. These carry to a medium to full-bodied, richly textured, concentrated 2022 with a layered, expansive mouthfeel. It's a gorgeous wine in the making. - Jeb Dunnuck

The 2022 La Louviere Rouge is composed of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Sauvignon with a yield of 31 hl/ha and aging in 40-50% new oak and 15% in amphoras. Deep garnet-purple in color, it swans out of the glass with showy scents of black cherry compote, blackberry pie, and spice cake, followed by hints of Indian spices, potpourri, and Sichuan pepper. The medium-bodied palate is lively and light on its feet, featuring chewy tannins and just enough freshness, finishing with a peppery lift. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Independent

Revealing aromas of violet, sweet cherries, plums, menthol and dark berries, the 2022 La Louvière is medium to full-bodied, fleshy and charming with both a tense and fresh finish. Jacques Lurton has done an excellent job on this property. It's a blend of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Sauvignon. - Yohan Castaing
